A dress for Friday

And probably every other day, too.  Oh, Anthropologie, why do you taunt me?  You make the perfect little dress and then only in one color.

Every fall, I mull the fashion offerings.  It's getting harder!  I've done the 80s thing already, back in the actual 80s, so much of this year's stuff is out.  I feel stupid in leggings, and I've hit an age where, while I've still got a pretty good figure, maybe I just don't feel like showing it all the time.  (Thanks, Spanx!)  And, honestly, owning a yarn shop isn't great for feeling young and stylish.  I'm just saying there's high frump potential, that's all.

Enter this dress.  Short, but not too, and comfy with soft corduroy, and just right for showing off my cute Daisy Duke boots* and any of a gazillion scarves at my disposal.  In other words, really perfect.  I'll take one in every color.  So, exactly ONE.

*My Frye Daisy Dukes, brown and cream.  Kind of like the ones in the link except for the color.  The only thing I can wear named after Daisy!

EDITED:  HEY!  They've added two more colors.  Yes, please.

Project Runway!! Hooray!!

My favorite reality show on tv is back...Season Five of Project Runway started last Wednesday. I loooooove this show. I like to think I sew a little, which makes it more fun for me, but my husband actually watches this one with me. The combination of innovative challenges, tight time limits, and intense personalities makes for a fun viewing hour. Add Tim Gunn, Heidi Klum, Michael Kors, and Nina Garcia ("of Elle Magazine") and you can't lose.

There are lots of great blogs following the show, including Blogging Project Runway and Project Rungay. It is possible to lose a lot of time following this show!

But all of those guys up there, except one, WILL lose. Last week's episode only produced a couple of standout designs, in my opinion. This might not get really interesting until the end.
